The most massive black hole binary ever detected by @ligo.org / Virgo / KAGRA! 💥
The remnant #BlackHole has approximately 260 solar masses! CENTRA researchers are studying the origin of such an extreme event! Stay tuned!

New work by Oshita, Berti & Cardoso shows how black holes "ring" like instruments in a room—echoes and all. Their study reveals how destabilized modes improve ringdown models. Now in PRL @apsphysics.bsky.social!
